Tech Events by Electra

The third in Electra's run of five dinners for women running companies in and around Bristol, this one loosely themed on leadership. A table of founders, good food, and a firm no-pitching rule - the evenings are for founders and co-founders only, and Electra is explicit that they are not a place to sell services. Tickets are 7.50 GBP as a contribution towards the food, and the event is sold out on Eventbrite. The exact address is shared on registration; it is central Bristol, BS1. Supported by Birketts, S and W, Micrima, Bristol Innovations, Kapel Consulting, the West of England Women's Commission and TechSPARK. Note the organiser's own copy says 'this third dinner, on 24 November' while the listing header says 10 November. Why go: small, closed and deliberately unglamorous - the format where founders say what is actually going wrong. Best for women founding or co-founding in the Bristol region who want peers rather than an audience.

Electra's community evening for women entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs, founders and ecosystem builders in Bristol. It's a practical, interactive night for asking questions and networking, not a lecture or a sales pitch. 18:30 to 21:00 at Origin Workspace, 40 Berkeley Square, BS8 1HP. Supporters include Birketts LLP, S&W, Micrima, Bristol Innovations at the University of Bristol, the West of England Women's Commission, Kapel Consulting and TechSPARK. The page lists no speakers or ticket price; refunds are open until 7 days before. Why go: a regular fixture that pulls in founders, advisers and corporate innovators who don't always overlap elsewhere. Best for women building or backing a company in the West of England who want conversations with peers rather than slides.

A facilitated dinner for female founders on fundraising — smaller and more candid than a panel, by design.
